Where is this melody? Or are they just improvising?

Just started the day 2 part of the lesson this week and it is fun too. To start the year with middle schoolers excited about music class is great!

I teach K-2, but I plan to use this lesson with some possible modifications for my younger students. I’m sure my kids will love this activity. Thanks so much for sharing this idea Mr. Chandler.

I am inspired and can’t wait to try this at the beginning of the school year with my 4th and 5th graders!

We used this phrase a lot last year at school. I am excited to start it this year with my 5th and 6th graders! Way to motivate!

My school is working on a new socialization and behavior component this year, and I think this works with it beautifully. It also gives them a creative manner in which to remember these elements that they need to work on. We also use Julie Hebert’s rhythm of the rules and I can mix it up adding those rhythms to yours.
